Leave Tinky Winky alone!

I, like Christopher Hitchens, do not give a rat’s ass about Rev. Jerry Falwell. I was reminded of another reason why he did indeed lead people based on paranoid, hate-based superstition. Falwell outed Tinky Winky and for that I will never forgive him. Nothing (well not nothing) gave me more pleasure when I was stoned in college, than to watch Teletubbies.
Apparently, the Polish government is also suspect.

The spokesperson for children’s rights in Poland, Ewa Sowinska, singled out Tinky Winky, the purple character with a triangular aerial on his head.
“I noticed he was carrying a woman’s handbag,” she told a magazine. “At first, I didn’t realise he was a boy.”
EU officials have criticised Polish government policy towards homosexuals.
Ms Sowinska wants the psychologists to make a recommendation about whether the children’s show should be broadcast on public television.
Poland’s authorities have recently initiated a series of moves to outlaw the promotion of homosexuality among the nation’s children.

That’s right kids. Tinky Winky is going to make you GAY GAY GAY.
